Carl Daily Leasing Corp. v Larochelle, 2022 NY Slip Op 07048 [211 AD3d 795]

December 14, 2022

Appellate Division, Second Department

[*1]

Carl Daily Leasing Corp., Appellant,

v

Andre Larochelle, Defendant, and S & M Caterers, Inc., et al., Respondents.

Mark A. Bonilla, Bellmore, NY, for appellant.

Nicoletti Spinner Ryan Gulino Pinter, New York, NY (Matthew G. Corcoran and Elana Schachner of counsel), for respondent S & M Caterers, Inc.

Franklin, Gringer & Cohen, P.C., Garden City, NY (Steven E. Cohen of counsel), for respondent Solutions Event Services, Inc.

In an action, inter alia, to recover damages for injury to property, the plaintiff appeals from an order of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Lawrence Knipel, J.), dated April 29, 2021. The order granted the motion of the defendant S & M Caterers, Inc., joined by the defendant Solutions Event Services, Inc., pursuant to CPLR 3216 to dismiss the complaint insofar as asserted against each of them.

Ordered that the appeal is dismissed, without costs or disbursements.

It is the obligation of the appellant to assemble a proper record on appeal, and the record must contain all of the relevant papers that were before the Supreme Court ( see CPLR 5526; Lee v Barnett , 134 AD3d 908 , 910 [2015]). Here, the Supreme Court relied upon its review of “a stipulation filed by [Mark Yosef, Esq.]” in deciding the motion that is the subject of this appeal. However, the record compiled by the plaintiff does not contain this document. As the address provided to the court by the plaintiff’s counsel in that stipulation was pivotal to the court’s determination, the record is inadequate to allow this Court to render an informed decision pertaining to the order appealed from, and the appeal must be dismissed ( see 425 E. 26th St. Owners Corp. v Beaton , 128 AD3d 766 , 767 [2015]).
